-NIA’S POV-

Run.

Get away from him.

Diving through the already pried-open window, I landed on my stomach on the high grass outside and rolled a bit. I got up with a jolt. Without hitching, I galloped into the wide cornfield. Blades of the young corn leaves scraped my legs as I stormed through the maize, crushing a few stalks.

The night smelled fresh, divine. The moon poured a silvery glow over the land with graceful ease, lightening the upcoming path. To my left were the speckling lights of a distant town.

Lykoan’s wolf growled behind me. It cut across the sky and stabbed the moon. It was the scariest thing that I ever heard. I knew he was shifting. He was howling for his mate and his desire tore at my heart. It caused my wolf to use her strength against me.

“Go back! Go Back to Sultan!” Starr snapped in my head. I realized that it was the name of his wolf. Cute.

Looking behind always made the movie characters trip and fall. It was a common mistake I refused to make in this reality. S

    -NIA’S POV-Lykoan pushed his groin so that it was flushed against my ass. He was playing a dangerous game. A plethora of whimpers left me as my body shuddered. I wanted to cum and I wanted to run. Lust battled rationality inside my head.It was the worst kind of war with sexual tension. I chanted a silent prayer for some kind of interference. Something that would distract him from sinking his fangs any further. Like a shooting star or even a comet.Moon goddess, if you exist, give me a hiatus from him, right now. I possessed the will to fight him, but his strength superseded mine. If he pressed his hulky body into me any further, the ground beneath me would sink, and I would be eating dirt and grass like a damn cow."Goddess. Damn!" He growled.Suddenly, his body shook like he was having some sort of seizure. My frantic heart was pounding at the same cadence that my pussy was throbbing.What’s next?To my surprise, he retracted his fangs, licking the blood from the small punctures he

    -NIA’S POV-“You’re awake! Thank you, goddess!” The strange woman exclaimed, her voice filled with relief. Her hazy form hovered over me, head tilting from left to right, assessing me. “Are you alright? Please talk to me.”Who was this woman?Hafts of sunlight crept in from the floor-to-ceiling glass windows, extending across the bed and warming me up after a cold night's sleep.The white sheets swaddled me, warmly and tender like my mother's arms. The faint smell of snapdragon and lemon lingered on my skin.I groggily forced my eyes to stay open and glanced around. At first, a feeling of panic arose inside of me as I took in my new surroundings, but then, the previous night's events caught up to me, and humiliation and dread flooded my chest.I inhaled sharply when I remembered how he screwed my mouth into a mind-blowing kiss. My nipples pricked at the memory of his hot tongue working it. My body lit on fire. I shook the next images away, triple-locked it, and threw the keys to the de

    DALTON'S POV-“Son, this is enough!” Harrison growled, slamming the CEO’s office door with a loud bang.Jolting up in my executive chair with fright, I slurped the drool from the corner of my mouth and rubbed my sleepy eyes. I felt like a ton of bricks were sitting on my chest and waves of nausea hit me.“Dad, is that you?” I thought I heard him. My damn head hurt, and I swear, if it was anybody else, I’d fucking kill them.A second slam was on my desk and a hard, burning slap registered on my left jaw, twisting it. My eyes shot out of my sockets. The anger roiling in my veins simmered when I gaped at the angry man with nostrils flaring at me. Coiling one fist, I brought up my hand to my chin, flexing the stinging tendons.“Look at this mess!” Dad flashed a hand across the desk, referring to the six empty whiskey bottles I chugged last night that were turned down on loose, scattered documents. “You have reports on the floor in this smelly skunk of an office.” He sniffed the air and wr

    -NIA’S POV-How did we go from me asking ‘How’s your wound?’ to being pinned against the wall with Lykoan’s dress shirt ripped off his sculpted body?“Why don’t you check for yourself?” He taunted, taking my hands and guiding them around his bare torso to the firm ridges of his smooth back.My stomach rolled with little earthquakes that just would not quit, then they turned into a full-fledged roil when Lykoan began moving my hands up and down his skin. The sparks zinged under my fingertips with his face dipped. He stared into my soul while I was glancing up at him, dazed.I held his gaze for as long as possible, trying to prove to him that I could remain unaffected. Unlucky for me, the intensity of his eyes caused my cheeks to heat up. Motion, motion denied. I swung my eyes away.Damn, those raunchy lilac eyes!A sense of shame washed over me.There were no scar tissues on his back. He was completely healed. Realizing the awkwardly intimate position we were in and that he intended to

    -LYKOAN’S POV-Saved by the Grande Valse ringtone, Nia’s eyes swung to the vibrating phone on my desk. Obviously, she expected me to take the call in order to evade my questions.Zeus was fuming. He wanted her to tell us about the son-of-a bitch who hurt her so that we could give him hell. Yet, she just sat there— protecting him!She was fiery, stubborn, insensitive, troublesome and argumentative. She was so damn—“Beautiful,” Sultan wolf commented. Of course, she was breathtaking, but I could think of a lot more irritating words to describe her. That’s exactly why she’s so—“Heavenly,” my wolf finished, choosing his own adjectives. Grunting in exasperation, I swung around and picked up my mobile. “Speak!”“Don’t fucking tell me that you still have that rogue in my pack!” Alpha Jacques blasted. “I have rogue vampires encroaching on my borders here to collect her!”Everything in me shifted. My breathing faltered. Sultan bristled.“Who are we talking about?” I responded with my tone e

    -LYKOAN’S POV-Wait a fucking minute!“Why is the vampire dead?” I growled, looking at the amputated male head rolling towards my feet as blood spewed out of it to create red puddles on the rough gray floor.My angry voice bounced off the blood-stained walls of the windowless torture chamber in the large, dimly lit underground dungeon that stemmed from an old dome-shaped warehouse.Tightly secured by two scores of guards, it was a simple bluestone-tiled area that led to a long passageway between two rows of silver-barred cells. Thriving with molds and fungi, most of the cells were empty but a few contained law-breaking pack members and irremediable rogues.“He wasn’t talking.” Gamma Josh complained with his hands behind his back. His green eyes met mine and I did not miss the spots of blood that was in his apricot buzz cut hair. “He wouldn’t give me his name even after I gave him my name.”“He was just another knucklehead who was hired to make up their attacking numbers.” Jacques fill

She sat on the single couch to my right in the living room, acting as my guardian.Despite my lengthy objections, Lucidora insisted that I get checked over after Lykoan dashed off, and I was suddenly in pain. All of my joints hurt. A thumping pounded against my skull and I groaned quietly.Lucidora was alarmed and adamantly helped me to the long couch where I was slumped and hoity-toity Tameka rushed to my side, acting like a damn nurse.Although I could understand their concern, I couldn’t help but feel like a caged hamster under their watchful eyes. Plus, I was in a bad mood because I was still in Volkecrest Krowns. Day-oh! I groused internally. It was daylight and my own body was prohibiting me from going home. I hate this pack, but I loved this

His knuckles cracked and ashen.Territorial Alpha mate, I scoffed internally.I was frozen on the couch, unable to look away for fear of what was coming next. A part of me felt sorry for the man who would be receiving the blow of his wrath. Poor Gawain.I wanted to be anywhere but in the middle of this.Gawain cleared his throat, shifted uncomfortably on his feet and rambled, "Boss, it appears that Nia is in good health. Based on my observations, there are no indications of a concussion or any physical injuries. She has healed nicely from the silver, but her wolf is restless and needs to shift. Her joints hurt because she’s not completely in her human form. Her wolf is involuntarily transforming."Phew!Easy fix. It was just a bad case of natural causes. Although, I wasn’t aware that not letting my wolf out could

    NIA’S POV-Before anyone else could react, I quickly maneuvered myself with a left roll, which positioned me on my back. With a hard tug on Vydon’s black tie, I dragged his upper body forward to loom over me just as the bullet pierced into his back.Thump.A murderous growl erupted from Lykoan. I glimpsed dark clouds in his eyes covering the burning lilacs. Clouds with thunder, dilating rapidly for that sonic boom and lightning strike.At the same time, Julius hooked his arm around the henchman and wrenched him away from the Overlord, while Beauchamp’s hands gripped down Vydon’s shoulders, veering him to sit back in his chair, and hindering him from moving.The henchman was quick to swing back, catching Julius with a cheap shot to his jaw before he drop-kicked the guy in the gut, sending him flying back. The henchman jumped on his feet, going hard at Julius.“How dare you!” Lykoan roared. It was a deep feral bellow from his partially ascended wolf.With fast movements, Julius went low

    NIA’S POV-"I apologize, Lykoan. Perhaps I was out of line for assuming that you might share her with your new associate.” Vydon cockily referred to himself. “That’s what we do."Lykoan’s wolf bristled. I quickly adjusted myself on his lap and clutched him, stationing my hands on his lower back to calm Sultan down."I don't exist for your enjoyment, Vydon," I seethed through my teeth to set the record straight. “None of us do.”He waved his hand dismissively and smugly declared, "Hybrids that cross our borders are not free property. They know what it means to come to Idaho, and my pack members take full advantage of that."Horrified at the thought, my throat went dry. Why would hybrids intentionally subject themselves to the Trenchlands knowing what the Overlords would do to them?"That is a sick practice," I reproached, shaking my head as nausea crept up my throat and I squeezed Lykoan tighter."I’m blown away at how you have been hiding from us. It's so sad that I couldn't have foun

    NIA’S POV-Lykoan's lilacs glowed lightly. The wolf within him sneered and snarled. He certainly did not appreciate Vydon’s eyes looming over me as his lips curled into a sinful smirk.Overlords like this one tend to flaunt their power to defend the worthiness of their positions, especially since the dominant realms frowned on their existence."Vydon, you and your man will come this way." Lykoan gestured toward the vineyard estate.Apparently, Lykoan had sniffed out that Vydon brought his henchman on the flight. A younger and bigger, blonde-haired man with silver teeth cracking through his mean scowl, jumped out of the Black Hawk chopper in black leather chaps and a gray vest.Beauchamp landed an aggressive slap on Vydon’s back so that he stumbled two steps forward, but did not fall. The Overlord ground his teeth and whipped his head to the side to glare at him.“Try it.” Beauchamp dared him, cocking a brow up with his broad form intimidating.Vydon exhaled slowly before averting his

    NIA’S POV-Despite the horrific council meeting, it was a really nice day. The sun shone brightly, and the temperature was well above the average.Making our way down the stairs outside to the car, Lykoan put on his sunglasses to protect his eyes from the blinding sun. My eyebrows shot up in admiration. He appeared even cooler. I used my hand as shade as we walked under nature’s intense ball of fire."Please tell me you’re not going to become Mad Max today," I teased, and we stopped in front of the Skoda Sedan. His tall frame was large enough to block the sun currently blinding me, so I allowed my hand to come down from my eyes."I’d rather be a James Bond kind of guy, today," Lykoan replied sarcastically. He winked at me and his lips tugged upwards in a delightfully sinful smile.“Cool, because he’s my kind of guy,” I smiled, dragging my fingers along the shiny zenith gold paint job as I walked towards the passenger door."If I didn't know any better, I'd say you were more excited ab

    LYKOAN’S POV-Nia chuckled nervously and asked through unsteady breaths, “What are you—are you trying to say I did magic? Because I can swear on my life that I’ve never so much as thought about it. I’m not even a witch.”“But you are elven,” Caliste strongly debated and exchanged a disturbing glance with me. “And you let her seal your powers. You owe her something. What did you trade to buy her spells?”“I-I don’t know that witch!” Nia practically screamed at her and there was a thick, death-like hush.Caliste peered at her curiously and restarted the feud.“Yet you have dealings with her. Don't you know who that nefarious witch is?”“No,” Nia averred firmly. She pursed her lips, her eyes sharpening.Jacques folded his arms, showing signs of irritation. “Neither do I, so for the love of all things holy, just be straight with us, Caliste.”The pack witch connected me with the line of her gaze. “Are you going to tell them or should I?”Too engulfed in my own analysis, I did not answer he

    LYKOAN’S POV-“Well—I’ll be damned,” Tank muttered to Hogan, still in shock. “She's so scary,”“Let's not kill her momentum,” Hogan added in a low voice with his hand in the way to hamper Tank and Josh from advancing.Both of them did not move, but they were definitely pleased at the minor destruction that she had caused. In this case, Nia did not need our protection. Instead, she held the witch hostage with glowing palms burning her temples. My lips twitched, itching to smile.“Nia, let me take it from here,” I prompted for her eyes to meet mine.Still apprehensive, Nia’s messy mid-pony-haired head finally whipped up at me. Anger contorted her beautiful face into a Tasmanian devil. Her orange eyes seethed like embers, and she gritted, “The witch tried to kill me.”“Nonsense!” Jacques roared grotesquely, pointing his finger in accusation. “You attacked her.”Narrowing my eyes, I swung my head in his direction, unleashing a guttural growl in warning.“Even when she’s wrong you choose t

Yet nothing happened, only more coughing and more smoke that puffed out of my ears.My throat felt chafed, dry, and aching. Hissing from the shortness of breath, I clasped my neck, blinking my wet eyelids excessively, and I nearly passed out.My heart instantly ached for my mate. Wanting Lykoan to be at my side and make it stop. My first instinct was to scream for his assistance. However, my voice was lodged in my throat, as if some sort of imaginary block had been placed where my vocal cords were.I gripped the side of my head as a splitting headache ripped through it. The pressure built. Sweat stung my eyes like vipers. I yelped in agony. When will this terrible spell end?Then it happened.I was somewhere else, alone and petrified. I

    NIA’S POV-“Nia, we invited Caliste, our pack witch.” Olsen addressed me in a cautious tone with his hazel eyes settling on mine. “To gain our trust, we require that you pass a minor test.”“Are you for real?” Lykoan scoffed. I groaned internally, reeling from the unexpected sting of that one word.“Okay.” I acquiesced with fake composure. Inside, I was freaking out. Test? What bloody test?"Excellent!" Olsen exclaimed with a nod. "I'm glad for your consent. It’s an amicable solution." He smiled, but it never touched his hazel eyes. He was hiding something.Alpha Jacques and his Beta exchanged snarky glances. He gave him a flick of the chin and T.K. moved from his spot, strolling down the table, and going towards the door. It was too late to back out without arousing more suspicion. For a piercing minute, I regretted my decision. Now, I had no choice but to see it through. To steady my heart, I forced myself to remember my initial motivation for doing this…to be acquitted of all the
